To set the timing on a Suzuki LTR 450, first, remove the spark plug for easier access. Then, align the timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft by rotating the engine clockwise until the marks are aligned at TDC (top dead center) for the compression stroke. Ensure the camshaft is positioned correctly in accordance with the timing chain or belt, and then reassemble everything, checking that all components are secure. Always consult the owner's manual for specific details and torque specifications.
You can set the camshaft timing, on your Suzuki 450, by manually turning the engine to the number one spot. Adjust the camshaft valves with the adjustment screw.
You don't. The timing is adjusted thru the ECM.
I have a 1998 Suzuki Sidekick JX 4X4 4 Doors, How do I set the timing? Please show me the steps thank you.
The distributor is set to 0 degrees with a scan tool. You cannot do this with a timing light.
There should timing marks, or you can consult a repair manual (very cheap.)
Hey Ron==The timing is controled buy the ecm and is nonadjustable. Good luck Joe

Initially @ 6 +- 2 dgrees btdc at 600rpm with vac line to distributor disconnected and plugged. BigBronco351
If you are talking about ignition timing then the answer is easy. You don't. Suzuki's PEI (Pointless Electronic Ignition) takes care of timing the spark. If you are talking about valve timing-resubmit and I will take a stab at explaining it. There is no way to remap the electronic ignition system to change the spark timing.
To set the ignition timing on a 1998 Suzuki Sidekick Sport 1.8, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and then turn it off. Disconnect the timing connector (usually a single wire connector near the distributor) to set the timing to base specifications. Use a timing light to check the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley against the timing mark on the engine block. Adjust the distributor as necessary to align the marks, then reconnect the timing connector and recheck the timing to confirm.
